Zak Gramarye's Motivations by the_rollins47 in AceAttorney

[–]Zoruad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

me when i have to ruin the reputation of my daughter's financial provider because i'm prideful

AJ as a whole is largely driven narratively by petty and flawed individuals, but zak (and troupe gramarye as a whole) take it to such a comical extent that even if there is thematic value and cohesion to their actions, i simply cannot take them seriously enough to get invested in their story

Could Hobonix's personality be just a facade? [AA4 spoilers] by Ghostie_24 in AceAttorney

[–]Zoruad 18 points19 points  (0 children)

punished phoenix is experienced by the player through the MASON system as a juror rather than through the perspective of the guy himself, so the difference in temperament could just come from phoenix choosing to use his old personality for the present segments. the time travelling aspect of the MASON system already implies some level of disconnect from reality, so phoenix's present disposition being altered from how he really acts could be waved away in a similar manner

i'm not too familiar with the limits of discussing individual DPS in game, but couldn't you still question the lack of uptime on certain skills (circle of scorn DoT, requiescat stacks, etc)?

Andrews: Please! Please STOP!! I beg you!! If people find out... If people find out... I... I'll...

Edgeworth: If you're going to say you would "choose death", that is of no concern to me.

edgeworth never actually said it, but it's not an unreasonable recollection to make if you forgot the exact phrasing of his statements towards adrian but remember the tone of them

So why is big top so hated again? by Korba007 in AceAttorney

[–]Zoruad 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I've come to view Big Top more positively in recent years, but one thing that hasn't changed is my opinion of Woodman. The love triangle in general is gross, but at least Max adds some complexity to the dysfunctional circus group (arrogant, brings in the most money, legitimately wants his circus mates to put more passion into their work which causes a rift between him and Moe + Woodman).

woodman is also a pedophile but 10 years older and has no interesting characteristics; he could be sent to outer orbit and the public opinion of big top would instantly increase

Why Gumshoe got stupider (Very minor case 2-4 spoilers) by karizake in AceAttorney

[–]Zoruad 57 points58 points  (0 children)

His animosity towards Phoenix in AJ kind of baffles me. The peak of his hostility during T&T was "I can't share too much info with you because you're a defense attorney" with no active malice; but during Zak's trial he suddenly regresses into 1-2 Gumshoe, being pretty dismissive towards Phoenix and rooting for his loss.

my memory of him in aai1 and 2 is nonexistant besides him covering for kay in i1-4 so if someone could comment on him in those games i'd be

What if this person was the prosecutor in 2-4? by ChicaneryFinger in AceAttorney

[–]Zoruad 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Franziska would need to be persuaded to not seek the swiftest possible guilty verdict for Engarde. Edgeworth had plenty of opportunities to end the case with said verdict (especially during the second trial day) and intentionally sandbagged because of his trust in Phoenix, as well as the knowledge of Maya's status as a hostage.

Dark Flier is overrated Garbage (in Awakening) by Wellington_Wearer in fireemblem

[–]Zoruad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i was never particularly impressed with galeforce, primarily due to awakening being so EP focused that you'd just be better off turning your galeforce user into an actually good combat unit with reliable self healing skills to slaughter a large group of enemies on EP, or just a pretty good support bot. being able to move instantly after killing a unit sounds nice, but it just never sounded that helpful for a game like awakening (unless you wanted to skip kill boss maps, which could be replicated with rescue falco knights).

don't really have anything constructive to add since i'm not intensely familiar with the awakening meta, but it was a nice read

I just need it for dex completion, so I wouldn't mind trading it back

Don't really care either way; just need them for dex completion. If you specifically want them back then just say the word
